Community Information Handbook 2018

Find community services in San Mateo County

CIH 2018 Welcome to the 2018 Community Information Handbook. It is my pleasure to present this resource guide to the residents of San Mateo County. This handbook provides a hard copy for users, while a more in-depth listing of services are available at www.smc-connect.org. In addition to the agencies in this handbook, you can find information on many additional nonprofit agencies, government programs and community organizations. The easy-to-use web browser works on various platforms: desktops, tablets, and smartphones, and is available in five different languages. I would encourage you to take a few minutes to try it out yourself. Has your agency information changed? Have you changed your phone numbers or service offerings? You can easily update the information yourself online by downloading the one page instruction on our website: hsa.smcgov.org/smc-connect. Our goal is to leverage the use of technology to improve your access to the database. We welcome your feedback; please send any comments to [email protected]. Please note that inclusion of an agency in this handbook does not imply endorsement, nor is exclusion a reflection of the value or quality of an agency’s services.
